Nash Middle School Physical Education

September 27, 2012

Physical Education class is currently conducting a football unit. 5th and 6th grade students in each class are split into 4 teams. Each team is to design their own playbook with 5 running plays and 5 passing plays. By collaboratively working on the playbooks, students learn common terminology, and begin to understand the game and learn team strategies. The teams also practice running the plays and conduct their own team drills.

We are also performing fitness tests, such as the shuttle run (agility test), sit and reach (flexibility), and the 100 m dash (speed).
